I suppose this is really no surprise to us being that we fell in love with the all new Jeep Renegade's interior right from the get go but it is nice to see it getting the recognition that it deserves. Check out the official press release that FCA made. All-new 2015 Jeep® Renegade Named to ‘Ward’s 10 Best Interiors List for 2015’ 2015 Jeep Renegade Interior Design The all-new Jeep Renegade interior features a rugged and energetic appearance that builds upon the Jeep brand’s legendary heritage. Its precisely crafted details, innovative and high-quality color and material appointments, state-of-the-art technology, and clever storage features draw inspiration from contemporary extreme sports gear and lifestyles. “The Jeep Renegade lives up to its name by bringing a rebellious new style to the overcrowded small SUV segment,” said Winter. "The interior checks off all our boxes in terms of being roomy, comfortable and having excellent ergonomics — even the voice-activation system works flawlessly. But, the attention given to interior details and design is truly spectacular for a vehicle in this class. Whimsical design elements, bold, contrasting colors and stunning metallic bronze trim convey a sense of fun and adventure that sets it apart. The Renegade isn't a ’cute ute,’ it's the Cherokee's badass little brother.” When designers of the 2015 Jeep Renegade began the interior design process, they started with a fresh canvas and simple design brief: create a small SUV that they themselves would aspire to own. This objective is strikingly apparent in the Renegade’s dynamic lines, hand-sculpted forms, and emotional character. The 2015 Jeep Renegade’s iconic design sets it apart in the global marketplace. The 2015 Jeep Renegade interior was designed using four key principles: •Make an emotional design impact •Use high-quality materials with an inspired color and materials story •Integrate the latest state-of-the-art technologies •Develop clever storage and intelligent use of space The interior of the all-new 2015 Jeep Renegade has a distinctive form language which Jeep designers have titled “Tek-Tonic.” The Tek-Tonic design theme is defined by the intersections of soft and tactile forms with rugged and functional details. Major surfaces such as the sculpted soft-touch instrument panel are intersected with bold functional elements like the passenger grab handle. Indispensable for off-road adventures, the robust handle is borrowed from its big brother, the legendary Jeep Wrangler. It cleverly integrates into the passenger air vent to create a unique sculpted element. The unique center vent “air-pod” and anodized accents draw inspiration from performance goggles and boots used in extreme sports. Unique protective clamps that surround the Uconnect touchscreens, shifter bezel, and front-door speaker bezels exude strength and precision. The clamp surrounding the touchscreens is embossed with “Since 1941,” paying homage to the Jeep brand’s legendary history.
